Description

The spinning mill has been mentioned since at least 1846, when it belonged to Letang-Vannaise. Until the end of the XIXᵉ century, the buildings were built high up, typical of the early days of mechanised spinning. Later, these structures were replaced by ground-floor workshops. Two dates inscribed on the buildings bear witness to the rebuilds: 1906 and 1908. In 1943, the factory still employed around a hundred people. Today, the remaining buildings house a transport company, an agricultural shed and municipal warehouses.

The main structures are built of limestone, with rubble and ashlar for the quoins and frames. Early 20th-century buildings incorporate brickwork for the surrounds, dividing walls and a panelled gable wall. The square-plan chimney is also made of brick. The roofs are gable or sheds, covered with mechanical tiles. The dwelling has a broken pavilion roof covered in slate, while the conciergerie has a pavilion roof.
